looking for information on milling on the sub spindle
what kind of cuts can be made
currently i am machining 303 ss with a 1/2 dia end mill- milling 10 flats at 3.200 across the flats
od for the flats is ruffed to 3.364 dia.
2300 rpm on z axis facing live tool
the cut is .018-.082 rdoc at 13.5 ipm
polar milling
i am using m188 for a low clamp pressure
while climb milling the sub spindle gets sucked into the cut breaking end mills
i did reprogram it to conventional mill the ruffing pass then climb mill the finish pass which seems better but still has a slight jerky motion to it
am i trying to cut more than the machine is capable off and what should the pressure be for the low pressure clamp ?
